The entrance to the BadLands is a deep and sudden gap between the mountain-range that surrounds the BadLands. If you go through this way, it would leave you vulnerable, and you would most-likely be spotted if anypony was on guard at the top of the mountains.  |

Vaan walked up to the entrance of the badlands. Despite its name, it looked calm enough. With its gentle, moutain breeze cooling against the sun's hot rays, Vaan had a feeling he could make it here
The only reason he was here was because he needed a smuggling job. Or any job really. His old crew were ambushed, and things didn't turn out too well. The surviving members of the group decided to split up and go there separate ways. After a couple of jobs and hearing rumors, Vaan made his way to the Badlands.
"There's no use in standing around waiting," he spoke outloud as he pulled his scarf over his mouth, "Let's go."

Atop the mountain-range - if Vaan were to look - he would see several figures moving along the top of the mountains, along with the glint of a spyglass. At one of the highest peaks of the mountain-range ahead was a large metal pole. If Vaan were to look, he would see a large black flag being moved up as if to signal Vaan; on the black flag was a green locust, surrounded by a matching green circle.

Vaan's ear twitched to the sounds of a falling rocks. When he looked to see what caused them, he only saw the last of the figures disappear over the moutain. Then something else caught his eye-a flag. It proudly waved displaying a green locust.
Vaan flapped his wings until he rose off the ground. He then flew straight towards the flag as it was calling his name. Though, before he went full speed, he loaded his crossbow just in case.

[Enter Joxer and Legion]
With a soft flash of magic, the duo appear in the entrance to the dirt filled hole called the badlands, the sun barely blocked out by the pillars of rocks around the area. Stretching a little more, Joxer eyes Legion with a soft hum. "So, where to now, oh fearless leader of this rather small yet unknown pair?"

Shaking away the teleportation with a small shiver, Legion glared. "You smart mouthed little-" Cutting himself off with the sight before him, the changeling blinked. "This air, it wreaks of.. fire. Not something I'd want to mess with. Come on." Trotting through the entrance and looking for some sort of clue, Legion sighed. "Its hours old, but this dirt feels dry, like it was burnt from something. Who knows."
Kicking over a rock, the changelings mission was a fail, there was nothing here. Perhaps fail was the wrong word. Cancelled perhaps? Shaking away the mental dilemma swirling through his cranium, the bug sniffed the air. "Well, this was a waste."

Chuckling softly, the tan jokester hums and follows quietly, eyes glancing about as the bug monologues... partially.
"Like I said... tell me what we're after, and I'll try more, Legion." He hums softly and looks up with his eyes shining softly.

Trailing from Joxers position, a small amount of dried blood could be seen staggered throughout the dried barren land. The best clue they possibly recieved so far, the trail seemed to lead straight towards a labyrinth of boulders?

Huffing with doubt, Legion turned to him with a shrug. "There were rumors of somepony trying to create an army to overrun the Queen. One of their soldiers had went to demand the Queen partnered with them. She laughed and killed the creature. She sent us out here where her sources say he came from."
Kicking the dirt and following the steaming smell, the changeling felt he could cover more if only he ventured further. "Lets split up. I'm going to check the volcanos, if you wish to go in the opposite direction. Meet back here." Without much of a response, Legion was off, searching for anything worth while.

The tan stallion listens to the boring, yet at least mildly appreciated, explanation of the ever less understood situation. Chuckling softly as Legion disappears of to who knows where, Joxer's eyes fall on the blood between his hooves, slowly turning to watch it head off into the desert landscape. Looking back towards Legion to see if he should even call, Joxer rolls his eyes and walks off after the blood trail, mildly amused at the fact that he still isn't trusted.
If anything, I hope he falls in the volcano. You never know.
Following the trail of blood with minor confusion as to why it was even there, Joxer heads into what seems to be just miles of boulders, slowly following the trail. Surely whoever is at the end of it can't be alive. But... it was his curiosity to find out.

Leading over what looked to be a difficult bolder to climb across, the path behind it had proven the creatures survival. If for the moment. With small amounts of drying blood leading into a labyrinth of sorts, remembering how to get out was the key to entering within. Following such a trail, would lead Joxer here.
